I have a X2 5000 Black Edition that I have bumped up to 2.8 Ghz. I am getting ready to upgrade my 7900gt to an 8800gt for the newer games. I have a 19" widescreen lcd that runs at 1440x900. I have 2GB of DDR2 800Mhz ram.
So, is my X2 5000 BE at 2.8Ghz a good match for an 8800gt? Is my CPU a bottleneck to this video card? I'm trying to get a video card that will be more or less evenly matched to my CPU so that neither have any processing power lost due to the other. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
